[ 07/48] ALSA: control: Make sure that id->index does not

[Willy Tarreau]

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
 overflow

From: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@xxxxxxxxxx>

The ALSA control code expects that the range of assigned indices to a control is
continuous and does not overflow. Currently there are no checks to enforce this.
If a control with a overflowing index range is created that control becomes
effectively inaccessible and unremovable since snd_ctl_find_id() will not be
able to find it. This patch adds a check that makes sure that controls with a
overflowing index range can not be created.
